Here’s What The New NYC License Plates Will Look Like

New York City residents will be privy to a newly-redesigned regional license plate, announced New York State Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) Commissioner Mark J.F. Schroeder earlier this week.

The redesign comes in part of a series including 10 new regional license plates across New York State.

“Every region of our state has something unique and interesting about it, and we are happy to celebrate that uniqueness by making these new license plates available for New York drivers,” said Commissioner and Chair of the Governor’s Traffic Safety Committee Mark J.F. Schroeder. “These also allow drivers to put their own unique touch on their vehicles and show pride for the place they live.”

The new NYC license plate features a scene of Lower Manhattan, including the One World Trade Center as a focal point. The remaining nine regional plate designs will be released throughout June. New Yorkers will be able to purchase any of the 10 new regional license plates this month.

More than 200 custom license plates for military and veterans, counties and regions of New York State, sports team, professions, causes, etc., are currently available from the DMV. NYS DMV supports organizations such as the World Trade Center Memorial Scholarship Fund, Cure Childhood Cancer Research Fund, the Environmental Protection Fund and the Life Pass It On Trust Fund with revenue from certain cause plates.

Custom plate orders can be made via the DMV website, mail or call.

In addition to NYC’s, Long Island’s plate was just unveiled, featuring the recognizable Montauk lighthouse.


Stay tuned as the New York State Department of Motor Vehicles continues to release the other regional plate designs over the next few weeks.
